As far as I know there is nothing in SF to automatically enforce the characters entered in a Textbox with respect of the field length value.

An error like this can be easily generated by the end user.

BusinessLayerException
  An error occurred while saving an the data to the server.
DataLayerSavingException
  String or binary data would be truncated.

I know I can create a lot of broken rules to validate the field Length, but I strongly believe that this should be handle by the Business Object Mapper since it has all the information needed to add this kind of validation to the BO designer file.

I understand exactly what you are going through at the moment, as do many other developers out here on this forum. It took us a while to "break out of our shell" so to speak and finally smell the roses BigGrin Many of the things that you are fighting is simply just trying to come from an environment in which you were comfortable and then try to apply those same techniques towards .NET. Obviously this is met with some frustration and scratching of the head when trying to resolve your problems.


Can I get an "Ahmen" brothers and sisters! I vote this as the understatement of the year, both on the frustration part and the smelly roses part Wink



This is why we have really developers and tweaked our training classes over the years...to cover things just like this.


If you haven't signed up for the class yet...do it. Best training class I've ever had.



Happy Easter...I am going to take off and spend the rest of the day with my family.


Happy Easter!

Hi Greg,

I have not signed up yet, but it is on my priority list. 

In my experience with other training and developer conferences, it is best when you are familiarized with the tools, and that is just what I am doing know with this project, getting to know SF.  I belive I'll be in good shape for the July class. Cool

Ivan, I know you have a big beer contest or something like that for the July class, I don't drink beer, but I'll buy you one (yes, just one Tongue) any size you like, if I make it to the class!

Hi Edhy.

You are safe with me, then! I am a very light drinker, but it is going to be a pleasure to have one with you, and just tell me what you prefer instead of the beer. BigGrin

Hope you can make it. Where are you going to be coming from?

Truth be told...we all like to talk big, but everyone (that has posted so far and that I know) including myself, are very light drinkers BigGrin ...but it is more fun to talk big BigGrin

Yeah, we actually have people already coming from as far away as Denmark...so I am pretty sure they aren't driving either Tongue
